All of the main three boys got at least one girl with an crush scene this episode and, like a lot of Bang Bravern, it felt like a genre thing that they were pointedly not reacting "correctly." With Smith in particular, that entire sequence is connected with him walking out of the "girls' changing room" and not reacting at all, as well as the moment where the hotel clerk goes from the usual ribbing to "maybe they are siblings..."

It doesn't feel like the usual main boy obliviousness, either (Sasaki and Peeps is over that way).

All that said, why did he take his shirt off to do CPR?

Is Bravern the third main boy?

Yeah I just don't know. It looks Lulu centric so there's that but some of the other scenes are kinda way out in left field. I'm sure it'll make sense on Thursday.

If nothing else I have to respect Lulu's VA for managing to sound so much like a literal baby.

Even Ellie from Precure, who was literally a toddler in the show, didn't sound that convincing.

"Actually Smith" continues to intensify as only Smith and Bravern use the name "Japan" rather than "Nihon" or "Nippon."

Bravern will be the last thing Lulu refuses to stop calling "Smith."

Okay, I'm convinced that Bravern grew up watching American movies as a passtime.

It's amazing how this show can seemingly switch tones and modes on a dime and not get any whiplash from it.

Also, the full OP:

For all the fun madcap stuff I'm glad the show takes the time to make the more earnest and serious scenes land too. I liked the little exchange between the Lt. Colonel and the Sgt. Major. But also everyone at the base fussing over Lulu was great

It's funny again how everyone is reacting fairly normally to the absurdity of the Super Robot Show happening before their eyes. I enjoyed that everyone was pretty understanding of the bizarre situation Smith is stuck in with Lulu... except for Isami. Everyone else is being really helpful with Lewis and Lulu but Isami is just immediately pissed off that blond best buddy looks like he's fooling around while HE has to save the Earth.

lol that they have to keep that gaping hole in the meeting room so Bravern can join in, its probably really cold in there since they can't patch it up.

Not much mech fights this week, but plenty of Lulu, don't blame Isami. The choice between a super robot and a random mysterious girl that talks like a bird is a touch choice.

lol, GA-GA-PI when she hit Isami for being mean to Smith, watch your language Lulu.
Honestly, Isami's been kind of annoying and mean lately. He needs to lighten up.

Japanese curry is indeed great.

A cooldown episode, but looks like we're gonna get a lot of action in the next few.

I'm up to the fourth episode and still have no idea what the gently caress is this show, but I guess it's the one I'm sticking with for the whole season.

Request: someone GIF that head nod with the wieners. It is a work of art.

Lulu is hilarious. Theres a lot of toddler like characters in mecha but here is a girl that is literally a toddler. You have to teach her new words, she misuses them always, throws tantrums until she falls asleep and pukes when she eats solid food.
